I am picking up two rescue snakes tomorrow (I was told about the situation today, so I have had no time to prepare) and I am unable to wait for any heat tape or a quality UTH to come in.
So, I picked up two ZooMed UTH's and a ZooMed thermostat. Now, I know these are not the best things that I could be using but will they work as a temporary fix until I can order the proper, quality things that I need?
Also, I know that you aren't supposed to use ZooMed UTH's with plastic tanks... Is there any way around this? Could I stick it to a piece of glass and put the tub over the glass? I know I can't just leave the adhesive paper on it... That worries me way too much.
Any help would be appreciated... Like I said, the ZooMed's are only for up to two weeks, until I get paid and can get the quality items that I need for my new babies.
